I recently came accross this article by Kris de Leon. Have a read and tell me wahat you think.

The big step in the goal achieving process is dreaming big dreams. This is my favorite part of the process because it unlocks my inner child and opens up my creative faculties. We are all creators of our experiences, so why not make them as big and exciting as possible? Big dreams help you tremendously with goal achievement, especially since big dreams give you power and enthusiasm. When obstacles get in your way and things don’t go according to plan, big dreams make up for it with energy and enthusiasm. Small dreams don’t really give you any kind of power.

Fear and procrastination are two major roadblocks that keep you getting to your goal. If your dreams are not big enough, you’re going to procrastinate. Who gets excited about small dreams? You’ll also let fear overcome you, but with big dreams and energy, you are more likely to overcome fear and procrastination. If you add self-belief to the equation, then you’re definitely going to be an unstoppable force. According to Napoleon Hill, author of Think and Grow Rich, belief and desire are the beginning of all achievement. If you match fear and procrastination against big dreams and belief, chances are the latter will win in a heartbeat.

When you were a kid, did you come up with a list of things you wanted to do when you grow up? Did you ever write down them down in a list? If so, where did you put it and how much of that list have you checked off? I’ve asked one of my mentors, a self-made millionaire, what his secret was, and he said that he had big dreams and wrote them down. It’s as if he created the life he wanted, and the story book came alive and his dreams became reality. According to Brian Tracy, you have a 1000% greater chance of achieving your goals if they’re written down.

Dreaming is probably the most enjoyable, yet most important part, of the goal setting and goal achieving process. A big dream, coupled with self-belief, will make you unstoppable and will even destroy fear and procrastination. Sit down in a quiet place with a yellow legal pad or journal, and start to build your dream list of at least 100 dreams. What are some things or hobbies you enjoyed in the past? Where do you want to travel? What new things do you want to try? Interested in learning a foreign language? Want to start a multi-million dollar enterprise? How about flying to the moon? Whatever they are, no matter how crazy, just start writing them down. Be on the lookout for new dreams when exciting new things come your way.
